Los Angeles resident Lucy Record is scheduled to return to The Burt Wood School of Performing Arts this summer to choreograph the musical "Mary Poppins Jr." for its 2018 Summer Arts Festival.

"Mary Poppins" opens Thursday, July 12, at The Alley Theatre and closes on Sunday, July 15. This summer marks Record's 19th season choreographing for the annual festival. She returns to her home in Wareham every summer and "loves her creative time" with the Burt Wood students, according to a news release.

Record is a renowned West Coast choreographer who has won numerous awards for her professional work. She was named Best Choreographer by the Santa Monica Theatre Guild several years in a row, and also won first place in the celebrated Drama Teachers Association of Southern California Competition for middle schools for her work with "The Music Man." Record created, designed and is teaching the musical theatre class at the Colburn School in downtown Los Angeles.

Record also will offer a three-week dance-intensive class for all levels Monday, 3 to 4 p.m., at The Burt Wood School, running for three weeks. Classes will run July 2, 9 and 16. An open-house performance will be held for family members on Wednesday, July 18, 3 to 4 p.m., during the final class. Tuition is $80, payable to Lucy Nagle Record.
